Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds ground beef
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 (4.5 ounce) can chopped mushrooms, drained
2 large eggs, beaten
½ cup bread crumbs
2 tablespoons ground black pepper
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon minced garlic cloves
1 (4.5 ounce) can diced black olives
½ cup pepperoni slices
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Combine beef, tomatoes, mushrooms, eggs, bread crumbs, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic in a large bowl. Set aside a few teaspoons of olives for the topping; add remaining olives to the bowl. Knead with your hands until fully mixed.
  • Divide 1/2 of the beef mixture between two 8-1/2x4-1/2-inch metal or glass loaf pans, filling each halfway. Use your fingers to create a canoe shape lengthwise down the middle of each loaf. Place a layer of pepperoni slices down the middle; cover with a layer of mozzarella cheese. Repeat with another layer of pepperoni slices and cheese. Reserve a handful of cheese for the topping.
  • Cover the pepperoni and cheese with the remaining beef mixture. Top meatloaves with a sprinkle of cheese and black olives.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until beef is no longer pink, about 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground beef: Use a lean or extra-lean ground beef for a healthier loaf. You can also use a combination of ground beef and ground pork or ground turkey for a more flavorful loaf.
  • Season the ground beef well: Use a variety of seasonings to flavor the ground beef, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. You can also add some grated Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh herbs for extra flavor.
  • Use a good quality pizza sauce: The pizza sauce is an important part of the flavor of the loaf, so use a good quality sauce that you enjoy. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own homemade sauce.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the loaf tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Bake the loaf at a high temperature: Baking the loaf at a high temperature will help it to brown and develop a crispy crust. Bake the loaf at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Beef pizza loaf is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a family meal or a party. It is a great way to use up leftover ground beef and pizza sauce. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy.
